I just went though the Smash Infinite thread and chronicled every character, Mii costume, or Assist Trophy submission dismissed as a meme - specifically using the word "meme".

The only instance of Smash compositing together different unrelated retro series/games into a single piece of content I'd have no issues with is if Dream Land GB turned out to be a composite stage like was teased - and that's solely because Smash was and still is awfully low on Game Boy content. It's why I don't like the idea of 9-Volt in Smash, why sneak in Virtual Boy rep through another series when you could just add a Teleroboxer fighter or let the VB walk with it's lanky legs? Why relegate Nintendo's pre-gaming toys to just "WarioWare weirdness" when you could put in a president or miniature marsupial to treat the whole library with respect?

Kellogg's were missing out on the brand deal of a life time by not licensing Nyan Cat Pop Tarts back in the early '10s.

I like this advert because it implies:

Pac-Man is immortal
Despite #1, Pac-Man is still able to be crushed
Hedgehogs are rodents
Whistling is equally as impressive as becoming a super hero and gaining sapience
Bubsy is not a bobcat but rather an overgrown housecat posing as a bobcat
Being able to hangglide is somehow more impressive than natural gliding abilities
Donkey Kong is a robot
Sonic can't skateboard
All games that are not Pac-Man 2 cease to be "adventures" after a first playthrough
Pac-Man is the only video game character ever to not use a stunt double
Pac-Man is comparable to the cast of Mortal Kombat
The cast of Mortal Kombat would be inable to use their powers to fight crime

I do not, however, like the TV advert for Pac-Man 2, because it is very ableist.

I unironically want Zero Suit Dark Samus - as in the horrific plasma of alien skeleton - in Smash. I have never played ZSS and never will unless they provide a non-sexy version.

Between this, the unused Wreck-It Ralph and Hulk content, and Reindog seeming pretty Yoda-coded to me, I'd say it's safe to assume this game was pitched to Disney at some point.

While modern Nickelodeon is often mocked by cartoon fans (and with good reason) one thing I think they do better than their rivals when it comes to animation is allowing a wider age range in their protagonists - they're not afraid that a cloud working a 9-to-5 job or a group of dumb babies will put off their 6-to-12 demographic.

While I really appreciate the sentiment of the recent-ish push to portray coding in kids' shows and movies, I also find that the way game development and coding are portrayed in them (specifically the advanced and professional nature of the ficticious games) makes it look both way more intimidating and way more easy than it actually is at the same time - and thus is kinda counter-intuitive. The game LeBron's son makes in Space Jam 2 and the entirety of Game Shakers come to mind.

I personally prefer multiplayer games to be one of two extremes: super deep with a lot of hidden depth and techniques, or an 80s arcade-style button masher where the only thing that seperates the good from the bad is reflexes. Something inbetween (Mario Kart 8 for example, where it's possible to improve but hitting the skill ceiling is just an extension of learning the controls) doesn't work for me.

I know very well by now that likes on creation threads don't reflect votes often, and that the SSF2 stage is probably what people like here and not the character, but seeing my submission for Antonball characters get as many likes as the Cuphead and FNaF submissions in

FazDude 's indie thread combined is surreal in the best possible way - I have a feeling we're really gonna be digging deep and promoting our favourite hidden gems on this thread!

The whole deal with Jimmy and Timmy in NASB is weird because, unlike Geno; Porky; and other conspiracy characters in Ultimate, I can totally understand why people felt they were owed their inclusion in base - even ignoring the prescendent set by the Nicktoons Unite games they are two of Nick's most iconic and beloved characters - but at the same time, NASB never promised or even implied it'd have the Power Hour duo and acting like you were scammed by the game because of their absence is unreasonable, especially when cartoon crossover tie ins both by Nick and other studios have a long history of strange snubs with both Jimmy and Timmy being heavy victims of this, Timmy even being getting snubbed from the Unite series itself for Globs of Doom.

FNAF merchandise has really reached the "Farmer TMNT" point hasn't it? Not an insult

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 5, 2022

If I were to do a guest job in SMSB (which I won't - at least not for a base game, but even for DLC it's highly unlikely) they'd probably be an indie character inspired by a Mario game. (so Bug Fables, Pizza Tower, Kaze and the Wild Maks, so on) No Rareware or returning from Smash stuff.

I feel Nintendo are really good at making single player games, but kinda crap at multiplayer. Might just be that I like to play online and vs. CPU for hours on end and don't have the big gatherings Ninty's games are designed for so I gravitate towards more complex alternatives like CTR and NASB.

Saying "linearity/a lack of freedom makes Crash Bandicoot bad" is like saying "gore makes Mortal Kombat bad" - it signifies a complete lack of understanding for the series' very foundation and appeal. Not liking linearity doesn't mean Crash is bad, it just means you aren't in the target audience.

I don't really want to do any gameplay mechanics jobs for SMSB, mostly because I feel there isn't a very big overlap between "people who know a lot (or even care) about Smash mechanics" and "people who partake in creation threads". I'm just gonna imagine it has wavedashing and air dashing and such.

I absolutely want to do a job for Smashville and hazoff Pokémon Stadium equivalents, but since we added both, our Battlefield and Final Destination stages (Cap Kingdom and Star Road respectively), quite recently I'll probably get in some more casual stages first.

Apparently Superman is low tier in Multiversus

I know this sounds really mean towards these characters' fans, but when the canonical strongest characters in a fighting game are low tier it makes me really happy for no real reason.

Every single submission list for PCC could be a whole game of its own - not a very sensical one, but still a very varied one.

I'm not sure when to start the next stage job in SMSB - we did quite a few at the beginning of the thread so I don't want to continue the stage overload, but at the same time I also don't want it to be an eternity until the next stage job.

I like the term "Discord fighter" because it basically gets across what "dead game" actually means without being insulting in nature.

I think I'm gonna have to stop giving short overviews of the alt lists on the Mario Smash thread's strawpoll selections, I'm starting to think people are just voting for whichever list has the most model swaps and not necessarily which is best overall.

The conceited attitude some Avatar fans have towards other Nicktoons is really annoying - especially in NASB discussion.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 3, 2022

Honestly I feel Ultimate's "second life" after the next Smash launches will probably be through mods like Brawl - modern Smash is basically playing a tug of war between Brawl and Melee game design with Melee edging closer each game, and the people who argue "wavedashing isn't needed" and such tend to end up prefering the faster pace of each new instalment. Even if casual players don't want wavedashing or such, they will catch on to SSBU's performance issues and see its pace as sluggish come a new instalment.

Cotton Candy Yarn Yoshi has appeared in all 3 Yoshi alt lists for Mario Smash so far. Not really saying this means anything, I just think it's kinda cool how from the very large list of Yarn Yoshis we've pretty much all agreed on one.

Wario Wario Wario · Mar 2, 2022

It's kinda funny how both NASB and Multiversus, regardless of quality, undeniably only exist to shill the legacy content on Paramount+ and HBO Max respectvely - but the game that's success spurred them on is filled with content from games with next to no official or legal means of access.
